Good benefits from Interactive Metronome for Children with ADHD
Introduction;
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neuropsychiatric disorders of childhood, and it often persists into adulthood.
ADHD is characterized by a triad of symptoms: inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.
Methodology;
Participants were children with ADHD between 8-14 years of age
Treatment consisted of 15-weeks of Interactive Metronome and Brain Balance training (up to 75 sessions).
Clinical response was assessed using the Quotient ADHD System.
Neuropsychological Results;
5 of 14 children (36%) with ADHD who completed Interactive Metronome and Brain Balance training had a 40% or greater improvement in measures of Hyperactivity or Inattention or Spatial Working Memory.
This is a degree of improvement that we have not previously observed in children with ADHD unless they were receiving medications, and then only if they were receiving the correct medication at optimal dose.
